In the first two months of 2022, Georgia paid 21,611,730 USD for electricity imports, including imports from Armenia cost 10,126,070 dollars, from Azerbaijan - 8,673,250 US dollars, and from Russia - 2,812,410 dollars.

If we take into account the amount of electricity purchased and the amount paid, Georgia bought the electricity at the cheapest price from Russia - it cost an average of 5.3 cents per kWh. More specifically, a total of 513 million kWh of electricity was imported from Russia to Georgia this year, out of which 460.9 million kWh of electricity was supplied to Abkhazia (this amount is not paid by the Georgian government). Consequently, only a small part of the Russian electricity - 52.1 million kWh - was consumed in the territory controlled by the Georgian government. If we take the amount paid for imports in January-February into account, it turns out that the Georgia bought the Russian electricity for 5.4 cents per kWh. 

As for Armenia and Azerbaijan, this year Georgia bought a total of 135.9 million kWh of electricity from Armenia, i.e. the purchase of one kWh cost an average of 7.5 cents. Georgia bought 114.8 million kWh of electricity from Azerbaijan - on average, for 7.6 cents per hour.

To be informed, the price of imported electricity consists of the weighting of the day, night and weekend tariffs. The above-mentioned data, i.e. the tariff is derived from the average rate and does not reflect the day/night and weekend tariffs.
